Now this is the kind of car restoration videos I seek out. No silly shop drama or other nonsense. Professionals doing professional work. Bravo !

quality level: German

I'm proud to have serviced these cars when they were new, before 60 years of wear and neglect took place. Even adjusting the 300SL idle mixture by changing the tiny air jet as shown here. I still have those jets in my tool box 😂👍🇺🇲 it was a great career. Greenwich, Connecticut.🇺🇲

WELT Documentary, thanks for existing.

Legends the Germans , this is the best restoration ever, brabus company is the best

WOW! WOW! WOW! This is probably the best restoration documentary I have ever watched. I enjoyed it thoroughly! Thank you!

Such an amazing documentary this was. I wish it was 150 minutes instead of 50. I can't tell how much I appreciate the work done by these mechanics, techniciansand engineers❤❤

Anyone else really want them to keep those chromes parts copper? Patina or not, that colour contrast against a pearl white body, would be *chef's kiss

"Have fun while driving " ❤

300SL a dream car for every grown ass man

I live in Bottrop for 6 years,,, next to Brabus ….love that place….love you Bottrop

This is what u call a restoration

Bir türk olarak Almanların şu mühendisliğine ve tasarımsal vizyonuna hayranım. Dilini bilmememe rağmen 50 dakika zevkle izledim. Belgesel için teşekkürler. Almanya'yı bir gün gelip görmeyi, gezmeyi ve Mercedes Müzesini gezmeyi nasip eder inşallah Allah...

What a gem !

It's excellent not just alluring!

Wow.. 6 Star.

Really impressive, these babies are in good hands.❤

I have never liked Mercedes but this video has me appreciating the old ones.

I would work at that restoration factory for just room and board. Pure art! The closer to perfection the closer to God.

...so satisfying to watch. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Just amazing work and attitude, the quality of Mercedes Benz products of the past were a reflection of the attitude and mindset of engineers of that era.Never to be repeated

Stunning..

This is just fantastic. An ultra high-end restoration on a beautiful vehicle. I could watch this all day.

i'm American, but i must be a German at heart, because doing these restos i just exactly what my brain finds satisfying.

these car you made are alot better then they come new out the factory.

This is a real restoration. Some KZfaqrs restoration make shortcut.

I wish I had this job, the satisfaction of fixing these cars is extremely delightful vs fixing a window on a basic toyota

That’s why for me Mercedes Benz is king of car! The best and the only one ☝️ of the most beautiful car ever made!😊

Perfect 10/10 and 5★

Increible !! Y al mismo tiempo orgulloso de que tengamos en España unos profesionales de tan altísimo nivel. Dicho esto, el precio de vuestro trabajo no está lo suficientemente pagado.

RESTAURAÇÃO 100% PERFEITA DA PAGODA. PARABÉNS A TODA EQUIPE DA BRABUS.

Thank You for having brought tears to my eyes, but enlightened me up to my soul. My Father owned a 190SL and a 230SL. My Mother,who passed this year, owned a 230SL and a 280 SL. She refused the special offer Stuttgart prepared for her for a 350SL, she thought to not emough respect the original 'Classicist' design that emblazoned the stylishness and uniqueness Mercedes Benz established within a market where only them and Sir William Lyons, remained innovators, but also vestals, from all other makers who edged down from the guiding principles of quality. My absolute wish is to be destined to own either a 230, 250 or 280Sl, for the remainder of my life. Only my astuteness, my fervor and my fate will be essential to accomplish that. My viewing of this marvelous documentary, for which I thank you from the bottom heart, happened on the evening of my 68th birthday, which year, if my memory serves me well, coincides with 1968 is in my heart a wonderful coincidence, with my Mother signing a purchase order for a 280 SL. Thank You!

Imagine Working 4 Brabus . AWESOME. A car guys Dream .

I love the Pogoda its beautiful these fine gentlemen are real professionals experts in their field. well done bravo

Very impressive👍

Lol!!! I just bought this exact car lol. I pick it up tomorrow. I was searching KZfaq for fun. Same vin! Lol. Great video!

Back in the 80’s I worked for a Porsche dealer in Raleigh North Carolina. We got a 911 in that had been owned by Dallas actress Victoria Principal. Very nice and rare car. Celebrities buy cars for appearances all the time.

I hope my grandma's Pagoda has been restored here by now ? She loved that car; and the 190Sl it replaced.

What an incredible Pagoda car restoration‼😄👍 I'd want me to be Brabus apprentice, too, taking back to my youth...🥰

Great to get the same jute cushion a thing of the past

i really really enjoyed watching this documentary .. amazing restoration

Icon cars. For every classic cars lover.

Watching the restorations at Barbus raises the hair on my arms in joy and brings a big smile to my face - absolute ‘PERFECTION’ at its BEST! Thank you - and God bless to ALL of you at Barbus for caring so much in restoring our Mercedes Benz’. I now look at my ‘91 500 SL in a more appreciative different light…

Wonderful ! I really wish I had the money to own a 300SL rebuilt by these guys.

Fantastic documentary! Thank you!

Damn, I thought Brabus only did modern tunes/builds?! I had no idea they did a restoration service. Absolutely beautiful work. I know where I’m going when I win the lottery. One new one, and one older restoration!

German engineering at its finest 👌

far out.... so good, that rose gold/cooper grill looks so good

I'm from Bottrop and always loved Brabus cars. When I moved to Australia in 2009 I put my Mercedes in my mother's garage where it has been sitting ever since. It's not an SL but one day I should ask Brabus to pick it up, restore it and send it to me :)

The expertise and attention to detail is awe inspiring. To bring these beautiful cars back to and perhaps beyond their former glory is an amazing achievement. Fascinating documentary, well done!

Beautiful....congrats Brabus Team, you have aced it! Excellent documentary.

unbelievable .. I will own one of these one day! mark this comment

WHAT A GREAT WORK WORLD BEST WORK IN BRABUS

I can not imagine how much a professional expiration like this costs...

The car went from garage queen to prom queen. Car Restoration is a profession that is a reward onto itself.

Jsem 100% Benzofil...obrovsky obdiv lidem od Brabusu,neskutecny respekt temto mechanikum! Nikdy nedosahnu na tento sen,snad v pristim zivote...👍 1 A!

A very satisfying documentary....

I am not a Merz fan. But this Merz Pagoda restoration is just fantastic! TQ for sharing.

Professional team, the best restoration company I have ever seen. I wish I could visit them. Being a mercedes benz owner I appreciate every bit of this incredible experience.

Absolutely marvellous restoration.

I appreciate the transformation.

I enjoyed watching the classics being rebuild and restored to new I can appreciate the professional work the craftsmen do there at Brabus thank you all there

Absolutely love the WELT series

My favourite car of all time ❤

Flawless and stunning!!!

the beast...December 2021 I've been there...wow my dream come true....the best of the best tuner...I love BRABUS ...thx for the hospitality from BRABUS at Bottrop...

Amazing, but without a doubt in my mind, expected restauration that could only be performed by these German experts.... Such a dedication and passion and believe in their fantastic products. Really with the most respect... unglaublich !!!

I am saving up money to own one after seeing this.

Those are the real cars of excellence, let's go!

This is one of the Best Documentaries I have ever seen. I love this Car so much that i am going to look to get a 1969 280 pagoda. A huge thanks to the German Mechanics to showcase this car and full Restoration. Awesome work😀😀👍👍

Great masterpiece. Ive been looking forward to this documentry for ages

The stuff of dreams!! I was amazed to hear the value of a 300 injection pump, I know where there is a full car, a 1965 300SE, with matching numbers.... I used to own it😁

that's a 1958 Mercedes Benz 300 SL (W198) 2.9 I6 2-Dr Sports Coupe (LHD) . . . quite a world class restoration job . . . the one in white is a 1969 Mercedes Benz 280SL (W113) 2.7 I6 2-Dr Roadster (LHD) . . . a true classic & torch bearer of the finest of German automotive industry . . .

Amazing work and attention to details, these guys are geniuses in their own field. Love the Quality !

Mercedes sice není ta nejzářivější hvězda na nebi, ale na zemi, krásnější hvězdu nenajdeš!!! Opravdová poklona všem, kteří se tak pečlivě a s láskou starají o tyto nádherná vozidla MB Díky...

That is what you call a high class restoration! $$$$

Thank you for bringing back to me fond memories of when I was in my 20s …. The 280sl and Alfa veloce were my roadsters and used daily…what a thrill.

These cars are absolutely stunning! Very beautiful!

Absolutely cutting edge work of art! Amazing restoration and upmost craftsmanship! I thought it would be at least €500,000 but it turned out to be a bargain at €300,000! This puts those backyard restorations to shame!

Fantastic

Amazing, in more ways than one. I recall going through the ads of the National Geographic at the time. They hardly had a lot of ads, but the understated Mercedes would always feature the two door SL on a single page.

Wow this is blowing my mind 💯 Stunning...its super stunning.... Worth all the efforts and time 👍🏻 Thank you for sharing this 😃

Incredible what they do. American Rezvani is nice too.

fantastic documentary

Very great work gives me hope that those classic cars will remain with us forever.

I would love a Brabus Classic reupholstered interior in my Mercedes 500E. Really lovely work

thx you for this amazing documentary, cheers from Chile

Wonderful work from the perfectionists at brab.

Amazing works, no other cars can march theses Mercedez

Must be a wonderful day when you go to pick up your restored car

An Icon in Mercedes Benz linagec is the 230 , 250 , 280 as with the Gulwing . Imagine being employed here at Brabaus . . Awesome
